00:00Yuzek, may we have Malacanang's reaction on Supreme Court's decision about two points.
00:04First, yun pong decision ng Supreme Court to junk the petitions about dun sa two-thirds threshold ng impeachment court.
00:13May we have your statement, please?
00:15Unang-una po, ang nagsagawa naman po ng decision patungkol sa pag-clarify ng salitang all members of the Senate
00:27ay galing naman po sa Senado.
00:29So, kung ano man po ang naging action ng Senado dito at kung ano ang naging decision po ng Supreme
00:34Court,
00:35yun naman po ay igagalang at iririspeto ng Pangulo at ng Administrasyon.
00:42So, kung sinasabi po dito na ang nagsampa ng petisyon ay walang legal standing,
00:48ito naman po karaniwan ang nagiging sanhi ng pag-dismiss ng isang petisyon kung ang taong nagsampa ay walang,
00:57hindi po siya yung magkakaroon ng interest kung siya yung madadanyos o hindi madadanyos.
01:02At ang prematurity ay dahil malamang nakikita rin po ng Supreme Court na hindi pa nakikitaan
01:09na maaaring magkaroon ng sinasabing danyos dahil hindi pa po maabot na sa sitwasyon na dapat na may katakutan.
